Eva's Cafe

Delicious potato hash and barbacoa sandwich. They let us swap the laksa hollandaise with the normal hollandaise on the hash. The matcha was not very well made - clumpy and not enough matcha. They were very friendly in trying to rectify this and gave us an extra shot of matcha.

Great food and coffee in a beautiful setting and very dog friendly. We were amazed that dogs are allowed in the Botanic Gardens and can be offload as long as in sight and under control. Our dog was in heaven.

I visited this café because it had good reviews, but I was really disappointed by the lack of hygiene. I’ve attached photos so you can see that my coffee was served on a visibly dirty, greasy saucer — completely unacceptable in any food establishment. It’s surprising that in Australia, which claims to have strict hygiene standards, food is still being served like this. The staff also didn’t wear gloves or hair coverings while preparing drinks, which would never be allowed in many European or Asian countries. This experience was genuinely off-putting. Who knows how they prepare coffee and other food!! I hope the management takes hygiene more seriously and trains their staff properly!! But I’ll still be reporting this to the local food safety authorities because customers deserve much better.

Very good, charming place! Ordered the tropical smoothie, delicious! Was looking for a quiet place to use my computer and charge it. It was the perfect spot.

Give all 5 stars for all categories; food was really good; quality and taste wise. Big breakfast set is well worth it. Scones awesome. Love that the cream is not too sweet. Scones texture is bit different than what I have in the US, lighter, but that does not take any point away from my overall experience. Very nice atmosphere to sit and chillax. Another spot recommended when visiting Darwin.

Almost closing time on Sun 27/7 recently when I ordered a choc ice drink for $9.50 takeaway. Mostly filled with ice so hmm.. Might have cooled me in the sizzling weather! Service staff are lovely. Cafe is housed in a pre-fabricated Wesleyan Methodist Church from early settlement days in 1897 restored & relocated from original site in Knuckey St. Great re-purposing of heritage in a beaut garden setting.. Check info board outside✨️✨️

Laid back atmosphere and excellent food: a mix of cafeteria breakfast options, plus delicious brunch-style items. Make sure to check the print menu. Definitely recommend the fruit toast!

Location and atmosphere is excellent, even on a humid, off-season, mid-week, mid-morning. Easy parking. Great coffee and Berry breakfast smoothie. Would be great if there were more than four cake options (and not healthy ones - big, sticky, sweet and decadent ones are my preference when I go out to coffee!)

Loved my laksa egg Benedict. Hollandaise sauce had a nice light flavor of curry laksa. Bush chai wasn't dissolved in the milk so there was a lot of chai powder with raw sugar bits on the bottom of the cup. Avo smash went well with the fennel with bush dukkah, feta and tomato. Sourdough for both dishes was nicely toasted and crusty.

Lovely cafe This is a lovely spot for a breakfast, lunch or just coffee if you are visiting the Botanic Gardens. Little bit pricey though but the outlook is gorgeous!

Love this place. It's so beautiful tucked in the botanic gardens - tall leafy trees all around!! There is a nice deck out the back, as well as seating inside and out the front too. Coffee is delicious - maybe could do with more options for food on the menu but what you get is delicious! Love that I'm back in Darwin and can pop in for a takeaway coffee, or meet a friend in such a picturesque setting.

This new cafe is gorgeous! It's only been open just over a week and is situated in the darwin botanic gardens. They have turned the city's oldest church into a darling cafe! However it is not overdone and the church still appears as an old church. Whoever designed/styled this cafe both interior and exterior did an amazing job. There is outdoor seating on the decking which shades under the trees, seating inside and also picnic rugs and lounge style seating on the grass around the church. I loved it so much that after my flat white I went home to get my family. It's a great place for the kiddies and why not take a stroll through the gardens while you're there. I had a flat white which was nice but not amazing and we also ordered banana bread and a ham and cheese toastie. Banana bread was lovely served with apricot butter but the toastie... It was 'amaze balls'! Cold water offered free. Loved this place!
